Introduction to the Basics of Atom its Structure and Properties

April 25, 2019 By admin Leave a Comment

General Structure of Atom

John Dalton in 1800 was the one who explained regarding the law on multiple proportions. Atom represents the fundamental units that can be divided into subatomic particles. This leads to the development of atomic models. In 1898 Thomson proposed a model by stating that mass of the atom is equally distributed or spread over it but Rutherford's scattering experiment demolishes the statement in 1909. Hence the existence of the nucleus with some electric charge at the center has been estimated … [Read more...]

What is an N-type Semiconductor?

March 28, 2019 By admin Leave a Comment

Semiconductors are materials which exhibit properties of both conductors and insulators. The semiconductors are of two types, Intrinsic and Extrinsic Semiconductors. The intrinsic semiconductors are the one with no doping and therefore called as pure semiconductors. The extrinsic conductors are doped with impurity atoms. Based on the type of impurity added they are classified as: N-type and P-type Semiconductors. What is an N-type Semiconductor? A N-type semiconductor is defined as a type of … [Read more...]

Fermi level for P-type Semiconductor

A conductor has a number of charge carriers, which are ready to take part in conduction after a certain voltage or heat is applied. Non-conductors do not have any free charges to take part in conduction even after applying an external voltage or heat. The materials which exhibit properties of both conductors and non-conductors are called semiconductors. The Semiconductor materials behave as an insulator for a certain voltage level and conduct only after the specific voltage level is applied at … [Read more...]

What is Intrinsic Semiconductor and Extrinsic Semiconductor – Energy Band & Doping?

P-type semiconductor with acceptor impurity

Semiconductor, as the name suggests is a kind of material whose shows properties of both conductors and insulators. A semiconductor material requires a certain level of voltage or heat to release its carriers for conduction. These semiconductors are classified as ‘intrinsic’ and ‘extrinsic’ based on the number of carriers. The intrinsic carrier is the purest form of semiconductor and an equal number of electrons (negative charge carriers) and holes (positive charge carriers). The semiconductor … [Read more...]
